My point was that the error said "not supported" which is true but then I
had to research to find out what happened. I didn't know if it was a bug
in pkgsrc, a typo, or what.
So I'd prefer if the error said "The following selected options are
deprecated: prefix-cmds (use kerberos-prefix-cmds instead)".
